For a full top body respray will i need to buy.
I've found somewhere to buy paint in cellulose. I will be painting both trunks inside and the fuel tank area. I'll also painting undersides of both trunk hoods aswell as the complete top outer shell. How much paint will i need to buy? The mix ratio will be 50/50 |

What units of measure do they sell them in?
For single stage, You have your paint, your hardner, and your reducer. For 1 unit of measure on the paint itself will yield about 1.4-1.5 units of material. Just FYI. 4L if you do not spray under the chassis, 5L if you do. This should net you with 1L in spare for touch ups or respray. I sprayed my body in 7 thin coats and sprayed under both trunks and used about 2L. I also painted my targa top and trunks twice. |
